Women's Bible Published

Twenty Protestant and Catholic theologians, tired of the Bible's sacred text used to legitimise the cultural and physical subjection of women, have decided to publish a critical and feminist reread.

The result is “Labor et Fides”, under the supervision of Elizabeth Parmenteer, Pierrerette Daviau and Laurian Savoy.

The project was released in Geneva by Parmenteer and Savoy, two teachers of the Faculty of Theology, founded more than four centuries ago by Jean Calvin, the father of French Protestantism, broadcast Tch.

Along with Canadian Catholic theologian Pierretete Daviau, two Protestant teachers have gathered in Geneva a group of scholars from different geographic, religious, and generational backgrounds.

In a media interview, Savoy explained that there are numerous passages in the Bible where women “are identified”, but also other passages that say things diametrically otherwise.

The Bible is not a monolitical text but consisting of many books, written at different times and in different dice. However, it is full of contradictions.

According to researchers, texts should be read critically. The Bible that scholars want to present presents various and sensitive subjects, such as the body, the seducer, the mothership, and the conclusion of the word for Mary, Jesus ' mother.

“IV Bible des Femmes” is a text that is essentially intended to challenge the traditional position of religious Orthodoxy, which sanctions women's subjection to their husband.
